We may not be going out and just staying in to safely work from the comfort of our homes, but we still have to look put-together and polished when facing our colleagues and friends in back-to-back web meetings. 

We want high-payoff looks without the hassle, so quick and easy is the way to go. Minimalism is the name of the makeup game this season.

While putting on a full face of makeup may seem too much for most of us these days, a stripped-back, fresh but fab natural look is the one to rock instead. Check out these quick and simple tricks to make you video-conference-pretty with just a few key natural makeup products and minimal effort.

TRICK #1: Even your skin tone with DIY Tinted Moisturizer

When you’re staying at home, you’d sometimes rather stay bare-faced than put on a full face of foundation. But you also want to look presentable during all those video calls. You’ll be glad to know there’s a perfect compromise--tinted moisturizer! It brightens and evens out your skin tone with just the slightest hint of color. What’s more, your skin will look sheer and dewy. Since most tinted moisturizers come in limited shades, you can create your own and match your tone while still caring for your skin.  

Here’s how to make your own mix. 

And voila! An effortless, polished look.

Create your perfect match with 100% natural Perfect Finish Mineral Loose Powder in Meringue, Soft Ivory, Latte, Warm Mocha, or Hazelnut.

TRICK #2: Add a gorgeous glow and more dimension to your face with Bronzer

Add some warmth to your face with minimal effort using bronzer. It’s all about making you look healthier and adding a natural-looking glow to your face. If you put bronzer on correctly, it’ll add more dimension to your face. But if you put it incorrectly, you can look dull, even dirty, so now’s the time to perfect your bronzer game. It’s not as hard as you think. 

A good technique is to apply it in the shape of the number “3” from your forehead to your chin, on both sides of your face. 

  • Start by lightly sweeping it at the outer side of your temples, along your hairline. 
  • Then curve towards your cheekbones while you’re smiling. 
  • Complete the “3” by curving from the cheeks towards your hairline down to your  jawline for a more sculpted look. 
  • Add a light dusting to the bridge of your nose and the tip of your chin, focusing where the sunlight naturally hits. Sweep a little bit on your neck, too, to balance your color. 
  • Finish it all off by buffing and blending so you don’t create harsh lines. 

Perfect your sunkissed glow with 99.7% natural Mineral Matte Bronzer in a versatile shade that complements the Filipina beauty, whatever your tone.

TRICK #3: Create a full look with just one product

Gone are the days when we rely on 10 different products to put on a full face of makeup. Creating a gorgeous look can be quite easy--and possible with just one product-- with monochromatic makeup. So shout for joy, minimalists! All you need is to triple the use of your go-to Made to Bloom Lipstick for a standout natural look.

  • EYES: Put some lipstick on the tip of your finger and dab on your eyelids. You can use a brush or just your fingertip to lightly blend all over. Add depth by putting less color on the inner half than the outer half of your eyelid or by adding more to your creases. 
  • CHEEKS: Use the lipstick as a blush by lightly tapping a bit on your cheeks with the lipstick with your fingertips. Blend it upwards and outwards. Add more to build sheer color. 
  • LIPS: Tie your look together by sweeping on the lipstick on your lips. Accentuate your pout by drawing an X on your cupid’s bow then follow the contour of your lips. And that’s it! 

A full face of makeup that’s simple and sweet with just the creamy matte finish of 100% natural Made to Bloom Lipstick. Get it in Joy, Grace, Wisdom, Warmth, or Strength.
